CHAPTER ELEVEN: THEY WOULD LEARN THE HARD WAYDesmondI did not fucking expect that.Well normally, I was a very calculative person and I did not make decisions on a whim… on very good days, I would even like to call myself meticulous.I mean that was the very reason why I have been able to stay alive for so long. It was also how I have been able to lead my people for so long, keep us all out of danger. But whenever it came down to that damn woman, it seemed like I was always making some sort of mistake.Like now, exhibit A, I had no idea that would be her reaction to my proposition, but in my head it made perfect fucking sense…. In exchange for a loan of the hotel I would give her protection, money and help her get revenge. A fucking steal if you ask me.But then I may have miscalculated things… She was just so fucking headstrong. I mean for crying out loud how someone so desperate could still have so much pride left in them.She said I was like the others, and that statement did not

A few years ago I never knew that this day would actually be possible but I was regretting ever getting married to that fucking dickhead Andrew in the first place.He was serious about that shit, a

CHAPTER FIFTEEN: STOOD UP FOR MEKennedieChin up KennedieI never thought that Desmond of all fucking people would be the one to give me a pep talk, but here I was hanging onto his words like they were gospel.Why was I so nervous to see Andrew?One thing that I knew for sure was that I had no feelings for him anymore, in act I had gone from being madly in love with him to completely hating his guts. I think the issue was that the last time I saw him, he made me feel so small, so unsure of myself and now, I was desperate to prove him wrong.“Andrew” I said with no emotion.He looked up at me and crossed his leg with a smug smile “Kennedie, baby, for a second here I thought that you were going to chicken out already”How on earth was I ever in love with this idiot?He was so fucking childish it was getting on my nerves and we had not even been in each other’s presence for nearly five minutes yet.I took a seat on the seat across him “let’s get straight to the point shall we” I said.“

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: ONCE YOU SIGN YOU FOLLOW MY RULES, LITTLE MENACEKennedie“How were you able to get this much fucking money to pay me in such a short time?”Andrew sounded so angry, but even better than that he sounded defeated, there was nothing tying me to him anymore…. He could not have me, and most definitely he could not have my hotel either.I had won this round.I scoffed “I don’t think that is any of your business Andrew you have all of your money and so I suggest that you stay far away from me from now on” I said.“You got yourself an older sugar daddy right, Desmond Knight?” he scoffed “you are an idiot if you think that he actually loves you. He will just use you and then-”“Enough Andrew!”I had enough, I knew more than anyone that this arrangement with Desmond was only temporary, but he had no right to question my fucking character, I would never stand for that bullshit.“”I doubt that you have any right to interfere in my private life anymore Andrew” I spat “my lawyer

CHAPTER NINETEEN: SHE MUST BE AVENGEDDesmondI hated all of these meetings.Quite frankly, they bored me to death but they had to happen. I was the Alpha after all and admits my personal preferences, which if I had my way too, I would never even be here… we had to meet often and strategize.Yea, that was the right word for it.At least Graham was here with me, he seemed to be the only one apart from me who did not have a stick up his ass.We were in the pack house conference room and my mind could not stop going back to what Kennedie was doing back at home.That girl had a tendency of always s attracting danger to herself… stubborn with that fucking smart mouth of hers.“Alpha”I snapped back to reality…. That girl, she was making me not to be able to think straight, almost like she consumed my entire being.I looked up, there was Graham that sat beside me and Mora with her glasses that was two sizes bigger than her face, then Kaden and Elise… those fucking insufferable twins.They w
